10 de mar. de 2024 · Angle recession glaucoma (ARG) is a secondary open angle glaucoma that is associated with ocular trauma. Recession of the anterior chamber angle is a common slit lamp and gonioscopic finding following concussive ocular trauma.
26 de feb. de 2015 · UBM is able to detect angle recession, iridodialysis, rupture of the anterior lens capsule, lens displacement, lens subluxation, ciliary body detachment, hyphema, and traumatic cataract. UBM is also able to demonstrate cyclodialysis, which is described further below.
UBM can be performed over a plano soft contact lens to minimize the risk of further injury with eyecups or with infection in a micro–open wound. With the help of UBM, angle recession can be differentiated plainly from cyclodialysis [10,11].
After ocular trauma, UBM can be used to evaluate iris-angle abnormalities including angle recession, iridodialysis, and cyclodialysis (Figs. 4.15 and 4.16). Angle recession is characterized on UBM by a posterior displacement of the point of attachment of the iris to the sclera and a widening of the ciliary body face with no disruption of the ...
Approximately 5 to 20 percent of eyes with angle recession develop angle-recession glaucoma. This brief review will discuss the pathophysiology and clinical course and signs of angle-recession glaucoma, along with differential diagnosis and treatment strategies.
9 de ene. de 2014 · Diagram illustrating several biometric descriptors of the angle, including angle-opening distance, iris thickness, trabecular-ciliary process distance, scleral spur–iris insertion distance and angle recess area.
Angle recession and cyclodialysis cleft can be clearly distinguished from one another using UBM. Angle recession causes the ciliary body face to tear at the iris insertion, resulting in a broadening of the ciliary body face without disrupting the sclera-ciliary body interface [Figure 15a and b ].
